Multi-Layered Effects of Fe on EMI Shielding of Sn-Al Hotel Architectural Powder

摘要

No evident effect in shielding efficiency is observed when the electromagnetic wave-absorbing coating materials were applied in single layers because of the dispersing nature of the powder. When increased to two-layer coating, shielding effects were evident at both high and low frequencies, with greater shielding efficiency at low frequencies over high frequencies. It is worth noting that when increased to three-layer coating, as the weight percentage of powdered Fe increased from 5% to 8% , the shielding efficiency of the powdered-Fe composite material was raised to −35 dB This shows that, as the weight percentage gets higher, the powder shows the resonance phenomenon of permeability spectrum, and at high frequencies, the electromagnetic wave shielding efficiency of the composite materials were greatly increased. As the weight percentage of the powered Fe were increased to 8% , we were unable to spread the powder evenly in the epoxy because of the dispersing characteristic in the electromagnetic properties of Fe and the anisotropic and heterogeneous nature of a powered composite material. During production, the powder aggregates often resulted in greater heterogeneity in the materials and consequently, lowered shielding efficiency at 3GHz.
